When I set up my linux boxen I have been leaving the domain name as localhost. My ISP is Comcast.net and I don't have my own domain name to plug in. I know that this is sort of retarded, but I have no clue about the correct thing to do here. If it makes any difference, I want to network (samba?) my Mandrake-Sun Sparc, Mandrake Intel, OS X Mac, AMD-64 XP, and Intel XP boxen together later. A pointer to a good how-to would be nice.
